Odd vert rim pic request

Looking to get my vert rims widened but I'm needing a top view (for lack of better words) picture of a vert rim so they can determine whether they can widen them on the outisde (adding a lip) or if they have to do it on the inside. Unfortunately I would have to have the tires taken off to do this so hoping someone may have a picture of this angle around.

Tried searching and the only thing I could find close was this, looking for a better angle and quality

It depends on whether they have to widen on the inside or adding a lip to the outside. $200 each to widen from the inside or $350 each to widen on the outside adding the lip. I'm doing this for originality plus it would look sick. I'm hoping they can add the lip otherwise I won't be widening them at all and going with a different set of rims.
